about

When I was younger it was so hard for me to write a song about simple happiness. This song is almost like a post-it note for me, there to remind me that everyday is the first day of my life. - JJ Grey

lyrics

No more clocks no more time
A little less reason a little more rhyme
All in all its been a day trip but I’m still me
So clap your hands and stomp your feet
Move your body around in it roll in it rock to the beat
a keep a moving, moving the sweat out of me baby

I’m exactly who I wanted to be
All I had to do was find a way to get myself free

And now I’m waking, up in a wonderland
I said I’m waking up, Lord it’s in my hand
Here I’m buzzing ‘round, buzzing like a bumble bee
Lord I finally found, finally found a sense of me

Now it feels like everyday
is the first day of my life
And now it feels like everday
is the first day of my life
And now it feels like everday
is the first day of my life
Oh yeah the first day, of my life

Deep breathe in deep breathe out
I feel that rhythm now girl you know
you make me want to shout Hallelujah
oh and throw my hands to the sun, to the sun
You see all that joy’s got a smile on my face
Got me dancing got me jumping
Got me hopping all over the place
Hold on, hold on hold on baby, here, here I come

I’m exactly who I wanted to be
All I had to do was find a way to get myself free

Now I’m waking, up in a wonderland
I said I’m waking up, Lord it’s in my hand
Here I’m buzzing ‘round, buzzing like a bumble bee
Lord I finally found, finally found a sense of me

Feels like everyday
is the first day of my life
Feels like everday
is the first day of my life
Now it feels like everday, Lord is the
first day of my life
Now it feels like everday, Lord is the
first day of my life
